Bronze Age bowl barrow on Upper Hollesley Common, Suffolk. These are the most numerous type of round barrow and up to 10,000 recorded nationally and no doubt many more lost. This area is rich in archaeological remains, with the famous Sutton Hoo nearby and several other bowl barrows. Not to mention the UFO’s in Rendlesham Forest. #history #bronzeage #archeology

The #EarlyBronzeAge #pottery included several highlights: vessels decorated with rows of impressions, incised lines, and punctuated dots, some filled with white inlay, like the fragments shown here! #Archaeology #Ceramics #ArchaeologicalFinds #Excavation #EuropeanPrehistory #MaterialCulture #Austria #History #Österreich
